(TFOR) Chapter 8: Life Long Moment

Before the formation of Olden World, before magic could even be proven and trusted, there lived seven noble warriors who balanced the sanity of the world. These seven knights were proficient in each skill from the ancient Olden. Bravery, Wealth, Truth, Justice, Decay, Corruption, and Prejudice. These fearless individuals were titled, The Seven Primal Knights. The first guardians of the land. The land that everyone lived in. The land that both creation and destruction occured every now and then. The land that seemed like it has always been. Pentevu created it all, with every speck in its mind, under every piece of creativity it had hard-boiled into the new idea. The truest god of all gods. It has no reason, no consciousness, no gender, no idea what mistake it has caused upon the universe. It made limits of the duration for all life, even for those old artisans who wear expensive armor.

This was only an option in some humans. Someone might reject the Order of Pentevu. These were knowingly called Norders. However, people who find worshipping vital to their lives, deserve to be ranked as Pentevians. As the words have been lectured in the Bible of Pentevuism:

“The ones who trust aren’t always the ones who are wise, but the ones who ignore may ascend.”

All the members of the Big Seven vowed to balance and restore equality to all, but not all of them believed in the Order of Pentevu. Centuries after the first Olden world was made, the promise was broken by none other than Prejudice. The others banned Prejudice into the Infernal Realm until he could redeem himself. Prejudice was tormented. He turned and cursed until the earth itself broke apart. The very fabric of existence was doomed, but Pentevu’s mercy was nowhere to be found. 90 days later, the Infernal Realm was devoid of Prejudice and the land settled, without knowing how it truly ended.

When the pieces of the land have reformed another Olden by the work of Pentevu, things started emerging into existence again, leading to the recreation of the only religion. All Pentevians from small population of magicians, sorcerers, kings and even Primal Knights respect the 19 Acts of Pentevu’s Path written in the bible, especially the 18th.

“Act 18: Social equality is crucial to have when out with others. Follow the equivalence of a blank scale, untouched on either side.”

Nordering has expanded across continents, making people less contributive to the society, greedier and more selfish in mind. Only a pint-size of pure pentevians exist on Olden World.

Recently, NSF archaeologists have managed to discover a necromantic monolith under an abandoned spell-casting academy in Izhevsk, Russia. The sacred text carved on to the rough sandy column, when translated from unreadable to English it read:

“Whatever Pentevu speaks, it’s lying. If it separates us to black and white, it shall be the culprit which started. We are The Seven and we should not believe its orders.”

The text continued about the rant on religious beliefs to the bottom, far away from the tip. It ended with:

“I am Prejudicar the last brother. We shall not break the oath upon Olden, unless the proper time has shown itself.”

Learning from the bible or not, fate is in their hands from now on.
